Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Results of Eleven Years of Waiting
In the restaurant, the lights are dimmed.
Luo Shaoqing added a glass of wine to Chu Lin and asked, "Why didn't you go in when you stood at the door of the Lin Mansion just now?" ”
Chu Lin picked up the wine glass and drank it all, with only remorse on his face.
He said: "Because I failed to protect Yuelang, I let the thief hurt him, I have no face to see Yueying, and I have no face to see my third aunt." ”
"That person hurt Yuelang in your hand?"
Luo Shaoqing was incredulous. Lin Yuelang's martial arts are not as good as Chu Lin, but he has still practiced, why was he injured by Wangbeichuan? What's more, Chu Lin was also present.
"Is he really okay?"
Chu Lin confirmed with Luo Shaoqing again, but Luo Shaoqing didn't answer truthfully when he saw his regretful appearance: "The wound has been treated, now just wait for him to wake up." ”
"That's good, that's good."
Luo Shaoqing's white lie made Chu Lin feel relieved, but Chu Lin couldn't be completely reassured, after all, this matter was not just about Lin Yuelang.
Chu Lin clenched the wine glass, and didn't dare to ask anything for a long time, and it was also a loss to Luo Shaoqing's sharp eyes, and Luo Shaoqing also wanted to take this opportunity to tell Chu Lin the truth about Hailiu Zhai.
He said: "Yueying was drugged in Hailiuzhai to do that kind of thing. ”
Chu Lin's already frowning brows furrowed even tighter.
Luo Shaoqing continued: "Now that person has injured Yuelang again, Yueying is bound to do something......"
"What does she want to do?"
Chu Lin interrupted Luo Shaoqing.
Lin Yueying has always been impulsive, and looking at Beichuan Wuyi's superb, with the few people beside Lin Yueying, they are not his opponents at all.
Although Chu Lin was worried that Lin Yueying would mess around on impulse, before Luo Shaoqing left the Lin Mansion, Lin Yueying Yin did tell him that he couldn't tell Chu Lin about this......
Wang Beichuan felt uneasy when he looked at Fan Ruojiao's abnormal movements, he subconsciously walked towards Fan Ruojiao, but before he took a step, he was kicked to the back of his right knee by Shuchen, and while his right knee was bent, he and a small soldier pressed him on his shoulder and directly pressed him to the ground.
He struggled desperately, but the more he struggled, the harder Shuchen pressed, and he couldn't break free, he looked up at Fan Ruojiao, and just saw her slap Luo Yujia into his head.
He lay stiffly on the ground, watching Fan Ruojiao fall to the ground.
Fan Ruojiao suddenly hanged herself, and Shuchen was also a little surprised.
"Jiao'er!"
This familiar voice made Fan Ruojiao subconsciously turn her head to look at where she came from, and she saw Fan Liaochen running towards her.
She found that Fan Liaochen, who was kind and kind on weekdays, was much older.
What Fan Ruojiao said, Fan Liaochen has not fully accepted it, but at this time, Fan Ruojiao committed suicide again, and he can't accept it.
He rushed out from under the shade of the tree, picked up Fan Ruojiao, who was lying on the cold stone slab, and burst into tears: "Why are you so stupid kid!" If there's something to say, why bother? ”
Fan Liaochen's hysterical shouts were all distressed, and Fan Ruojiao was also teary-eyed.
She raised her hand and wanted to touch Fan Liaochen's cheek, wanting to say something, but when the words came to her mouth, she couldn't say anything, so she could only touch Fan Liaochen's face and smile at him.
Her smile made Fan Liaochen's heart hurt even more: "Everyone is a family, what is there to sit down and discuss, why are you so reckless?" ”
Fan Liaochen counted Fan Ruojiao over and over again, but Fan Ruojiao didn't seem to hear it.
In fact, she has an element of gambling this time, or perhaps, she has been gambling all along.
Fan Ruojiao liked Chu Lin since she was a child, and she also showed favor to him, but Chu Lin never responded to him. She thought that Chu Lin had no time for children, until she heard that Chu Lin and Lin Yueying had a marriage contract, she didn't know that this was not the case, but because of Chu Lin's cleanliness, she admired Chu Lin even more, and she was more curious, the girl who had a marriage contract with Chu Lin. But when she really saw Lin Yueying, she was very disappointed in Lin Yueying.
In her opinion, Lin Yueying is a wild girl who doesn't understand the rules, and she is not worthy of Chu Lin who is a dragon and phoenix among people, but Chu Lin accepted Lin Yueying from the beginning, why is she not white?
Fan Ruojiao's mouth opened and closed, but she couldn't say anything.
Although she hated Lin Yueying for bringing Fan Liaochen here, she was also glad that Lin Yueying had brought him here, at least she could see Fan Liaochen for the last time.
Bean-sized tears slipped down her cheeks, as if her tiny life had disappeared from this world.
Fan Ruojiao slowly closed her eyes, and her hand slipped from Fan Liaochen's face.
Fan Liaochen looked at Fan Ruojiao who closed her eyes with a smile, her heart was like a knife, and the heart-rending cry of an old father echoed in the silent street.
Looking at Beichuan from afar, he looked at Fan Ruojiao from afar, motionless.
Fan Liaochen's cry pierced Lin Yueying's heart, the reason why she didn't notify the people of Fan's Mansion to come was not only because she wanted to hide the matter of Yuyu Pavilion, but also because she didn't want to see this kind of scene of life and death.
Lin Yueying stared at Tong Renfang in the shade of the tree, glanced at him, and turned to walk towards Chen Guangnian.
Lin Yueying greeted Chen Guangnian before him: "There is General Lao Chen." ”
Chen Guangnian walked out of the crowd: "Miss Lin is polite. ”
Lin Yueying glanced at Beichuan and told Chen Guangnian: "This person is looking for someone to watch, don't let him die." ”
Although Fan Ruojiao's crime has been determined, there are some things that still need to be confirmed, since Fan Ruojiao is dead, it can only be known from Wang Beichuan's mouth.
Chen Guangnian naturally knew what Lin Yueying meant: "This is easy to say, it is ......"
Chen Guangnian glanced back at the hazel chestnut who covered his face with his bottom, and did not understand Lin Yueying's intentions: "Why are you looking for this kid?" Why don't you just find Chu Lin? ”
yes, why don't you just find Chu Lin? Directly find Chu Lin and let him know Fan Ruojiao's intentions, and he can logically tell him about Yuyu Pavilion.
That's because Lin Yueying has other considerations.
Lin Yueying shook her head: "Let's talk about it." ”
Lin Yueying's simple three words were enough to see that her feelings for Chu Lin had been shaken.
As an outsider, Chen Guangnian couldn't say anything, so he stepped aside and sat on the ground.
Lin Yueying passed through the soldiers, stopped in front of Hazel Chestnut, and raised a smile.
Now the moonlight is hazy, and hazelnut is covering his face, so he can't see Lin Yueying's expression at all, he only heard Lin Yueying say: "It turns out that I am so bad in your eyes, cut first and then play, and insist on going my own way, then I don't take my life seriously at all." ”
Lin Yueying's tone of voice was very easy-going, but Hazel Li was sure that she must be the same as she looked, but he was a straight gut, so he answered Lin Yueying truthfully: "You didn't tell me what to say at the beginning, you said it, let me tell my dissatisfaction with you, I will just tell my dissatisfaction with you truthfully." ”
Hazelnut's truth made Chen Guangnian couldn't help but feel ashamed of him: "Fool! ”
"Oh, really?"
Lin Yueying's muscles burst out: "Then tell me, what are you dissatisfied with me?" ”
"Nope!"
Hazel vetoed it.
He may be a rectum, but he is not a fool.
Fan Ruojiao's body gradually became cold, but Fan Liaochen's sobbing never stopped.
Tong Renfang, who had also been waiting for a long time, walked out of the street on the right and wanted to take Fan Ruojiao away, but Fan Liaochen stopped him.
Fan Liao Chen wiped away his tears and snot, tried his best to calm down, and said, "Master Tong, the little girl has said everything she should say, can you let someone Liao take her back?" ”
Fan Liaochen knew what Tong Renfang would do to Fan Ruojiao next, so he couldn't let Tong Renfang take Fan Ruojiao's body to the Criminal Department, and let Fan Ruojiao die and be humiliated.
Tong Renfang is not a ruthless person, but the procedure that should be taken is still to go, he said: "Lord Fan mourns, but there are some things that still need to be dealt with, and please don't embarrass Tong Someone." ”
Tong Renfang said that he would let Fan Ruojiao take away.
"Wait."
Lin Yueying's voice suddenly sounded.
Now that Fan Ruojiao is dead, Wangbeichuan is also arrested and brought to justice, Lin Yueying has no need to investigate deeply, and she ended Fan Ruojiao on the dark side, naturally she doesn't want some people to be suspicious, but if this is a big trouble, it will not be good for Fan Mansion and Lin Mansion, after Lin Yueying thought about it, she still felt that it was good to do it quietly.
Now whether to let Fan Liaochen take Fan Ruojiao back to Fan's mansion, or let Tong Renfang take her to the Criminal Department, is just a matter of Lin Yueying's words, but with Tong Renfang's temperament, he will not obey Lin Yueying.
Tong Renfang said: "Miss Lin, this case is closed, this is none of your business." ”
Lin Yueying thought that this was just a matter of her own words, but she didn't expect Tong Renfang to be so stubborn.
She said: "Fan Ruojiao is dead, she can neither move nor speak, what is the use of Lord Tong taking it back?" ”
"Here, the official doesn't have to talk to the girl one by one."
Tong Renfang didn't give in at all, and Lin Yueying was also angry: "Then I just won't allow it?" ”
When Tong Renfang heard that Qi Yu had given Lin Yueying the expediency of Yuyu Pavilion and the Ning Family's army, he was furious, how could a little girl who had never experienced the world take on such a heavy responsibility?
Tong Renfang's eyes narrowed slightly, and she raised her hand to call someone.
Chen Guangnian saw that the two of them were about to make a move at any time, and immediately came over to stop them: "Two of you, can you take a step back each?" I have an opinion on whether you want to hear it. ”
Chen Guangnian came out to persuade him, Lin Yueying would naturally listen, and Tong Renfang was not good at arguing with Chen Guangnian in front of outsiders, so he reluctantly listened to him.
"Rules are dead, people ......"
Chen Guangnian realized that he had said the wrong thing before he spoke, paused awkwardly, and then changed his words: "Fan Ruojiao, who is the main envoy, is dead, and it is useless for you to bring it back." Didn't I catch that guy, you take him back, hey, what do you want to know, you can ask him, right? ”
"Brother Lightyear, you know my temperament!"
"Of course I know your character!"
Chen Guangnian put his arm around Tong Renfang's shoulder, dragged him aside, and whispered: "You also know that girl's temperament, what she decides will definitely be done to the end, isn't there an example in front of you?" Besides, we will still have a place for her in the future, and it is not cost-effective to fall out with her now. ”
Tong Renfang shook off Chen Guangnian's arm, thought about it left and right, and felt that it was the same, but let him bow his head with a little girl, he himself felt ridiculous.
After Shuchen saw Chen Guangnian leave, he turned to Lin Yueying and complained: "Miss Yueying, why haven't you changed the problem of saying only half of what you said?" Did you know that what you said this afternoon can scare people to death? ”
"I try."
As soon as Lin Yueying finished responding, a heavy footstep sounded behind her.
Both of them turned around and saw Fan Liaochen struggling to pick up Fan Ruojiao.
He said, "Thank you, Yueying." ”
Fan Liao Chen, Xie Lin Yueying, what? Thank her for not making this matter public and retaining Fan Ruojiao's dignity? Or thank her for not letting Tong Renfang bring Fan Ruojiao's body back to the Criminal Department and let Fan Ruojiao be humiliated?
This is known only to him.
"That's all I can do."
Lin Yueying replied, watching Fan Liaochen leave.
Lin Yueying said lightly, but Shuchen also knew that the reason why she didn't dig into it was not because she had a big belly, maybe she didn't want to destroy the relationship between the two families, although it was not something she could decide unilaterally.
Under the moonlight, Fan Liaochen's originally upright posture was a little rickety, but he still walked back with Fan Ruojiao on his own, which was also the last thing he could do for Fan Ruojiao as a father.
After Fan Liaochen walked away, Shuchen whispered to Lin Yueying: "Miss Yueying, Fan Ruojiao seems to have something to say just now, what does she want to say?" ”
Since Lin Yueying brought Shuchen here, she naturally didn't want to hide it from him anymore, but she really wasn't in the mood to explain it now.
She said, "I'm so tired today, let's talk about it another day." ”
Lin Yueying also said the same thing yesterday, but after so many things happened today, Lin Yueying didn't have time to explain, but since she could explain, Shuchen was not in a hurry.
In the carriage that went back, Yuan Cheng, who was riding in the same carriage with the Lin father and daughter, looked at Lin Yueying, who was surprisingly calm, and felt uneasy. Lin Yueying is like this, but Lin Jinzhuo is also like this, so that Yuan Cheng, who has a stomach full of questions, does not dare to speak.
The streets, which had been noisy just a moment ago, were now dead silent. In the dark night, the originally standing figure slowly squatted down, looking at the direction Fan Ruojiao left from a distance.
Chu Lin, who witnessed everything with his own eyes, still refused to believe that Fan Ruojiao, who had always known the proportions, was actually the mastermind behind the murder of Lin Yueying, and he was her motive.
Luo Shaoqing saw Chu Lin in such pain, and didn't know how to comfort him, but Luo Shaoqing was not innocent, Lin Yueying Yin Yin could take this opportunity to explain everything to Chu Lin, why didn't she have it, what else did she want to do?
On the third day, in the room behind the Fan Mansion Hall, a group of elders gathered here.
Luo Jinyu wiped her tears with a silk handkerchief, sad and sad: "Why was it so unfortunate yesterday, Yuelang was hit hard by someone and has not woken up yet, and this Jiao'er is ......"
Luo Jinyu sobbed again before she could speak.
Those who didn't know were made to sobble again by Luo Jinyu's words, but those who knew their stomachs were silent.
Chu Qingyun gently patted Luo Jinyu's shoulder and comforted her.
Fan Liaochen looked at Lin Jinzhuo, but he didn't ask anything for a while.
Fan Ruodi, who was guarding the mourning hall, glanced at the relatives and friends who came to mourn, but he didn't see Lin Yueying and Chu Lin for a long time, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart.
On the other side, Chu Lin, who was sitting alone in the pavilion, looked sullenly into the distance and didn't say a word. Shuchen didn't dare to disturb, so he guarded from afar.
At this time, a little guy ran in and said a word to Chu Lin.
The spring wind blew the dark clouds in the sky, the falling willows, and her hair.
Chu Lin looked at Lin Yueying standing under the tree from a distance, and he didn't know what to say to her for a while.
The bell that followed Lin Yueying, when she saw Chu Lin coming, she reminded her softly, and she brushed her hair that was blown by the wind and turned to face Chu Lin.
Lin Yueying's eyes were still calm, so people couldn't see what she was thinking, which was very different from her who could guess what she was thinking at a glance before.
Chu Lin still didn't move.
What is Lin Yueying looking for Chu Lin to do now? Is it to explain the matter of Hai Durian Zhai? Or do you want to ask clearly about whether you have protected Lin Yuelang?
Lin Yueying saw that Chu Lin stopped in the distance and didn't mean to come over, so she took a step and walked over.
Chu Lin looked at Lin Yueying, who was getting closer and closer, and had mixed feelings in his heart.
Lin Yueying stopped in front of Chu Lin and looked directly into his eyes.
The calmness in Lin Yueying's eyes made Chu Lin feel a little uneasy, and after hesitating for a long time, he still spoke first: "The matter of Hailiuzhai, I misunderstood you, I'm sorry." ”
Chu Lin suddenly mentioned this, which made Lin Yueying's heart start to ache, but she still replied casually: "It's okay, it's all over." ”
Lin Yueying said so, but her calm expression made Chu Lin unable to believe it.
Chu Lin asked cautiously, "Call me out in such a hurry, but what's the hurry?" ”
Lin Yueying replied: "It's urgent to say it's urgent, and it's not urgent to say it's not urgent." ”
"What's that going on?"
"Let's break up the wedding and the engagement."
"What?"
Chu Lin heard Lin Yueying's words coldly, and he was a little unacceptable, and even the bell and Shuchen came to persuade Lin Yueying.
Bell: "Miss, you have to think about the marriage matter!" ”
Shuchen: "Miss Yueying, just say everything, Childe will be considerate of you!" ”
The two of them scrambled to persuade each other, but Lin Yueying didn't listen to a word, still looked at Chu Lin and said, "I also made a decision after some careful consideration, and I didn't just say it." ”
Lin Yueying said lightly that Chu Lin couldn't accept, which made Chu Lin angry: "Why? Is it because I said something unpleasant? Or did I not protect Yuelang? ”
"Neither."
"In that case, then don't joke about marriage!"
"I'm not kidding. Do you dare to say that you really don't care about Hailiuzhai? ”
Chu Lin was silent.
Although it was not Lin Yueying's original intention, Chu Lin was still a little estranged.
Lin Yueying continued: "In this case, this matter is bound to be an insurmountable hurdle for you and me, even if you and I get married, the days will not last long, rather than this, it is better for you and me to break this marriage contract and find another good relationship." ”
Shuchen and Bell tried to interrupt Lin Yueying's words, but she had already made up her mind, and she still talked endlessly.
"You are just as the man said, always cut first and then play, and insist on doing your own thing. Before you decide, can you calm down and discuss with me? ”
"Who am I for? Who am I for? But I endured so much, in exchange for something, it was 'I think you are dirty'! Do you know how helpless I was when I heard that? I can resist this matter, but you shouldn't have to die to see Yuelang and not save it! He's still unconscious! ”
"I'm already apologizing to you for the incident of Hailiuzhai; I also have a reason for the moonlight! ”
The two of them quarreled more and more, but the final result was that no one gave in, and they only ended up red-faced.
"It doesn't matter anymore."
Lin Yueying took out the flower that she had been carrying on her body from her arms, stretched it out in front of Chu Lin, and said, "This is what you gave me, and now I will return it to you intact, from now on you are you and I will marry each other, and we will not see each other if we don't die!" ”
"Miss Moonlight."
Shuchen tried to interrupt Lin Yueying's words, but she still didn't listen.
Chu Lin, who was also mad, looked at Lin Yueying contemptuously and smiled coldly.
Lin Yueying saw that Chu Lin didn't take the flower, so she simply pushed it on him and let it go.
Chu Lin still didn't take the flower.
The flower slipped from Chu Lin's body, dragging a long red ribbon and falling to the ground.
Shu Chen was quick with his eyes, and he firmly grabbed the ribbon when the flower hit the ground, which prevented the flower from being shattered.
"What a 'don't die, don't meet'! Who's afraid of whom! ”
Chu Lin repeated Lin Yueying's words angrily, and immediately untied the peace knot sent by Lin Yueying tied to the Kunshan Hanyu sword, and held it up in front of Lin Yueying: "This was given to me by you, and now I will return it to you!" ”
After Chu Lin finished speaking, he threw the peace knot in front of Lin Yueying.
Lin Yueying didn't take the peace knot either, and let it fall, but fortunately, she was still caught by Shuchen.
Since everything that should be said has been said, and what should be returned has also been returned, there is no point in staying here any longer, so Lin Yueying turned around and left.
When the bell saw that Lin Yueying was gone, he immediately chased after him, but Shuchen looked back and forth between the two who were arguing unhappily, and after hesitating, he still went to chase Lin Yueying, which angered Chu Lin: "Shuchen, don't forget who you are!" ”
Shuchen stopped.
He naturally knew who he was, but what he knew even better was that there were many things about Lin Yueying that he didn't know.
Lin Yueying also stopped when she heard Chu Lin's words, but instead of looking for Chu Lin, she said to Shu Chen: "Shu Chen, don't follow me, it's too risky for you to follow me, it's better to follow him, big or small is an official, there will be no danger." ”
Lin Yueying had something to say, but Chu Lin didn't have the heart to ask, so he bypassed Shuchen and passed by Lin Yueying, and went down the mountain before her.
The misty drizzle fell lightly and fell on Lin Yueying's shoulder.
She sighed softly, but her heart ached.
She looked at Chu Lin's figure walking farther and farther, and she was extremely reluctant in her heart, but if Lin Yueying didn't let go, she would definitely torture each other with Chu Lin in the future, rather than this, it was better to let go completely, even if Chu Lin hated herself, it didn't matter.
In the dungeon, Wangbeichuan, who was covered in blood because of the torture, stared vacantly at the flickering candle flame......
